Yeah, which is what almost everybody figured would happen. And I agree with it.
But, I still don't understand why. This is not the presidential election, it's a party election. Then the parties vote at their convention on who their candidate will be. Then you have the presidential election.

Because the party didn't remove him from the ballot.

Then why even bother having a primary election?

Maybe PS doesn't understand what a primary is. Pro tip: it's where people vote for their party's nominees for public office.
It's NOT where politicians of the opposing party determine who we are allowed to vote for.

And every president on Mt. Rushmore opposed them as I pointed out. And with good reason. We're going to learn why the hard way pretty soon now.

Well, maybe not!

The U.S. Supreme Court rejected one way to block Trump. But other ways are available to those who hope to see democracy survive.
